I went to the website you recommended and viewed the kamakazi headers. They claim to give 4-5 more hp than DC headers, is this possible? Where in the power band does the 4-5 hp come in? Does anyone have dyno charts of these headers?

Yes, headers can actually take away power from your engine instead of adding you hp....
May i ask why Kamikaze headers? Are you looking for a good "bang for the buck"? If you are, i think that the new HP Racing stainles steel headers are a better bang for the buck than DC sports. They are dynoed to give you 8hp and you just pay 175, thats like 125 bucks cheaper that the cheapest DC header and you wont get more than 1-2 hp more with the DC... Someone in here posted the Dyno sheet on them done by Import Tuner(i think) |

the Kamikaze headers are designed for forced induction, due to it's short primary design. very free flowing, but too free for an NA motor.
the HP headers suck, period. they offer no gains in NA or FI. the ones for the Prelude have been dyno'd and reviewed to show as much as 5hp loss in the powerband. |

i plan on my first mods for performance will be an intake and exhaust. then i am going to supercharge it after those two mods. so after i get the sc then i will probably go for some kamikaze headers. i dont want to get them first if they are going to cause a loss in hp. where did you hear that hp headers give a loss in hp?
